The primary steel for the TPs is being manufactured by Haizea at its Bilbao facilities in Spain. Smulders will assemble, outfit, coat, and test fully equipped TPs, with the assembly taking place in Newcastle.
Once delivered, the transition pieces will be installed at the site approximately 23 kilometres north of the Baltic Sea coastline by Van Oord this spring.
The company will also transport and install 78 foundations, including 76 monopile foundations for the wind turbines and two foundations for offshore substations. Work at the site has already begun, with Van Oord’s heavy-lift ship Svanen installing the first monopiles in February.
Set to begin operations in late 2026, the project is expected to provide renewable energy to more than 1.5 million households in Poland.
